 It IS wise if you are going to put English entrants into cake, to dry them on a cloth by the fire after washing them, as sometimes the cold water will cause the cake to fall ChrtStiGn at York.

 A Tennessee farmer made an appli- cation of one handful of ground sul- phur, and the same of salt; to about a peck of ashes, mixed together thor oughly, then applied it to the collars of the apple trees that were badly affected with the borer. He says the remedy killed the worms and saved the trees.

 The good common sense of the average farmer ought to see, and will soon see, that no one can part with COW which will produce ten pounds of butter per week on an average, for a less sum than S200. For the 300 pounds of butter she produces would afford him S100 profit, bes des Jhe skim milk and the calf she drops annually. There is some difference surely between COW which will only yield s3O worth of but ter and one which will yield S12j an- nually. Farmer.
